Are there holidays tailored for people with sight loss?
There are many different holiday options for people with sight loss. Further information including how to plan a holiday and deciding which break might be best for you, can be found on RNIB's holidays webpage. You can also find out about specialist hotels, activity breaks, group holidays, themed vacations and more.
You can search for organisations that operate specialist hotels and holidays on the Sightline Directory by entering the search words 'hotel' or 'holiday'.
Sense run breaks for people with sensory impairments or complex communication needs, you can check upcoming breaks and book a place through the Sense website.
In addition to specialist holiday companies if you are travelling in the UK and are registered blind or partially sighted you are protected by the Equality Act. This means that service providers, which would cover hotels and travel companies, need to make reasonable adjustments to ensure you can access their facilities or services. It is always worth discussing any specific needs you have with your hotel or tour operator directly before you travel.
